Built with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain bonded to a durable polyester backing, this 4.5-inch disc delivers a fast, consistent cut throughout its service life. The shaped abrasive grain maintains cutting efficiency as individual flaps wear down, continuously exposing fresh mineral. Designed for use with right-angle grinders, it provides a notably smoother finish compared to fiber discs and bonded grinding wheels, making it a practical choice when surface appearance matters alongside material removal rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flap disc is suited for fabrication, welding, and metal finishing work in both shop and field environments. It performs well on a variety of metals including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum where aggressive stock removal combined with a controlled finish is required. The 40-grit designation makes it appropriate for initial weld blending, heavy deburring, and edge chamfering. The polyester backing resists flex fatigue under sustained high-pressure operation, extending disc life in demanding production or maintenance settings. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators working in structural, mechanical, or industrial environments will find this disc compatible with standard 4.5-inch right-angle grinder tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-grit 3M Precision-Shaped Grain for aggressive, fast material removal on metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable polyester backing withstands high unit pressure without delaminating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividual flap breakdown continuously exposes fresh abrasive mineral for consistent cut rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 27 flat profile reduces gouging risk compared to fiber discs and bonded wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for applications where surface finish quality is a secondary requirement alongside metal removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5-inch diameter fits standard right-angle grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 4.5-inch right-angle grinders accepting Type 27 flap disc arbors.

Verify the grinder's maximum RPM rating meets or exceeds the disc's rated speed before mounting. Inspect the disc for damage before each use and discard any disc showing torn flaps, delamination, or backing damage. Follow applicable ANSI B7.1 and OSHA grinding safety guidelines, including the use of appropriate eye and face protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 27 (Right Angle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Grain\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M Precision-Shaped Grain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.85 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 051125872589\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100109866\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347994247474,"sku":"7100109866","price":137.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310530317.jpg?v=1782117339","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100109866-flap-disc-40-grit-4-5-inch-type-27","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
